I had it in 2022, the whole year. It sucks... it was a constant: I want to die... I do nothing.

I had self control (I guess)... When I wanted to hurt me, I forced myself to NOT doing it at all....
For example... I want to grab a knife --- I stay in bed.

It doesn't help at all with the problem, but at least I'm alive.

Back in the days when i had more hope i tried to work against those suicide thoughts. I practice my mindfulness and mindful meditations. I went outside for walks, did some exercising (keeping your body fit helps with getting better), went to therapy (talked about my thoughts, emotions) and tried my best to hold onto the good there is and to not lose hope.

Well nowadays i just try to stay distracted, to consume (multiple) media (at once) and whatever to be distracted from it, to not have to deal with it. Which is pretty much a lie as they come back as soon as i have nothing to distract myself with.

I was very suicidal for most of last year bc of external circumstances that are causing my suicidal ideation. It's the logic consequence to prevent myself from further suffering. I did not fight the thoughts at all - I just could not go through with my plan and CTB for various reasons.

I cope in that I have no access to an option I can accept using, so in the time frame between me getting the means to ctb, that I would just be open to finding a reason to keep going.

It's hard. My suicidal thoughts manifested when my son CTB. Since then they have been pretty constant. I keep busy and I work. When I'm quiet it's worse. I also research CTB which oddly calms me down. Feels like I'm being proactive and it helps normalize it for me.

I still have them. I just treat them as passing states. They go away sometimes.

I've been dealing with suicidal ideation for the past 2 years and really my biggest coping mechanism right now is scrolling through SaSu. I know it sounds weird but just reading the stories of people who are similar to me and feel similarly to me helps me feel better about my situation; although, it's probably not good for my mental health in the long run. I also like to talk out my issues with someone I trust. Or just be near someone I trust. It helps to make me feel safe and like I have somewhere to go when I feel down or like the thoughts are getting too strong. Lastly, I find artistic expression helps to alleviate some of the stress from suicidal thoughts a bit. For me it's usually making songs or writing poems and stories.
